Background

When Rena's Great Astral Spirit first came into being it began consuming all of the planet's astral energy, so that Rena lost most of its landmass and the Helganquil, its true natives, were driven to near extinction. Having stripped its own planet, the Great Spirit turned its sights on Dahna. Locations on Rena include a vast structure that sucks Dahnan astral energy up from a hollowed ocean, whose mouth leads to the very heart of the planet, and a long corridor from Rena's core to a huge flower, along which the density of Renan astral energy increases, hence its dark thorns and flowers. By the end of the game Rena's astral energy is absorbed and dispersed across Dahna, merging the two into a New World. The name derives from a Latin name meaning born again, alluding to the game's conclusion.
